    July 1924 An ETS was as the name implied an experimental unit, and these days they tended to build into increasingly large units. An ETS Assault Company of 1924 as attached to 1st Regiment was the Colonel's option to breach an enemy strong point thereby allowing a following on force to mount an...

    There is an abundance of post grad research on just how varied armies in China were in the warlord period and on both sides of it and the disparity in geographic regions north south and west to east becomes very pronounced Supposedly there are accounts of the use of wall mounted black powder...

    July 1924 The fourth was around the corner. The papers had already started anti-bolshevik bylines in Xian, which really went to show that election season was around the corner. It would become more even more pronounced once the mid autumn festival began, and the summer drills were concluded. "By...

    Threadmarks: 5 Conclusion

    5.5 Heron felt the twitch, it was a subconscious gesture of aggravation at this ... mess. He hadn't started to pace yet, or perhaps that was a worse sign. The truth was he hadn't expected the conference to have a necessarily speedy resolution, but he had hoped that it would be a success. He had...

    Late Erastus4715 Eire found that it was good that his realm was mostly human. Tool use, more importantly the tools to make the tools were sized for humans, and in turn that the steady progress of agriculture ... the use of horses the rotation of crops and other developments more closely...

    Threadmarks: Late June 1924

    Late June 1924 The Regular Army and the National Guard were still at drill, and if some had noticed the gradual reduction, and movement of some officers or even some units from exercises it hadn't reached public chatter. This meeting might change that, realistically these sorts of meetings were...

    Just a heads up for anyone curious and this is tentative, I have a couple of Battletech snippets slated to go up probably in Junkyard, one of those is the still WiP update for Aurigan so if I get it finished or nearer to ready it may just go up in its own thread but it will deal with the AR side...

    no [it has not been abandoned] its update is actually further along than Aurigan. I waas actually working on Archon's update last week its just not ready yet. The only reason Autumn updates like it does is the volume of material for it that I had semi ready. I really would like to say that I...

    June 1924 There had developed a certain air of lingering frustration over the dysfunctionality that pervaded peking... but it was also a reminder of how long this all had been going on. Yuan Shikai had been dead along time now. Long enough for the world to irrevocably change. "We have an air...

    Ammunition wise yes, Xian's production of ammunition by volume probably amounts to eighteen to twenty of months of high intensity fighting due to the way Xian's doctrine is structured.

    I had to reread jomini and clauswitz for this, though thats largely because Jomini was the dominant military writer of the period, not necceasrily strategy text in the traditional sense but I've been rereading Kostinen's history of American warfare, particularly Moiblizing for modern warfare and...
